Those non-renewable resources are quickly disappearing and, with them, the hope for West Virginia's future unless we create a Future Fund—a mineral trust fund—to meet the challenges of tomorrow. Since the 1880s, much of West Virginia's wealth has left the state in railcars and trucks.

I am using the platform theme (1.3.2 by PageLines).
I set it up to work with drop down menus and for a few minutes it worked. I am no sure why but it suddenly stopped working (show the main navigation but when I hover nothing happens).
Do you know why this could be or where the drop down menus are controlled in code?

These 9 Amazing Breakfast Spots In Wisconsin Will Make Your Morning Epic
Pancakes and eggs seem so simple to make, but because they are so basic, not all places do it well. In fact, finding a good breakfast place these days can be pretty challenging. Here are some of the very best breakfast places in Wisconsin.
This retro joint, located in Wausau, features paneling and booths. But it's nostalgic, not tired. It's quaint and definitely busting at the seams with locals. Prices are good and they serve real maple syrup!
Up in Delta, the Delta Diner is a classic diner in Wisconsin's Northwoods. While the menu is not huge, the portions are generous and everything is delicious.
The Comet Cafe is a hip diner located in Milwaukee that is awesome for brunch or breakfast, no matter what you're feeling. It's comfort food--from scratch--just look at this huge place of food. They have a lot of things covered in bacon, but surprisingly really good vegetarian options too.
Marigold Kitchen has really been growing in popularity, voted the best breakfast place in Madison in 2015. It's actually been around since 2001, and it has a great location, right off of capital square. The food is fresh and is truly farm to table.
The Pancake Cafe in Fichtburg has been voted one of the best breakfast places in Madison as well. While it has only been around since the 1990s, a lot of the recipes have been around for over 100 years. You will love their freshly prepared meats, maple syrup and juice.
In Kenosha, Franks Diner is an absolute mainstay. It has been in business for more than 80 years. Their large portions of great food and sassy service have gotten them featured on numerous television shows and food magazines.
So, spoiler alert--this place has a bunch of wooden chairs. But also, they have some pretty great food. Located in Stevens Point, The Wooden Chair does breakfast and brunch with a twist. Featured here, for example, is butternut squash eggs benedict.
Obviously located in Oshkosh, this restaurant served home cooked breakfast...all day! The food is fresh, and many more items are organic. There is a German flair to the restaurant, represented in some dishes.
Up in Eagle River, the very best place to get a great breakfast is at Leif's Cafe. This place is always jammed, but is well worth the wait, due to its delicious food and very friendly waitstaff.
What is your favorite breakfast place? Be sure to let us know in the comments.

CEM Trans Services
CEM Trans Services, Inc. is a city bus company known for the use of an animated character Road Runner (which was said to be used by Partas). This company plies routes to parts of Quezon City, Valenzuela City and San Jose del Monte, Bulacan. This company is a sister company of Joanna Jesh Transport Corp.
The acronym CEM is derived from Crisinciano E. Mahilac, the founder of Joanna Jesh Transport Corp. and its subsidiaries.
CEM Trans. Services Inc. was established in October 2007 under the management of Crisinciano E. Mahilac, the founder of Joanna Jesh Transport Corp. and other mentioned companies under the Mahilac Group. It started with non-aircon buses plying FTI-SM Fairview route until the company acquired more units plying FTI-Grotto (San Jose del Monte). They also acquired 3 Daewoo units purchased from Renan Transit in June 2008. Recently, they refleeted into new air-conditioned Nissan Diesel Euro buses.[1]
In August 2008, CEM Trans acquired the new air-conditioned units plying Alabang-Malanday route. This is due to the large financial funds of the said company combined with the other bus companies under the Joanna Jesh Group.
Lastly, on December 2008, CEM Trans. has acquired new air-conditioned units plying NAIA-Grotto route.
CEM Trans. acquired new buses and formed an Alabang-Navotas route in 2011. A year later, they have expanded its route Alabang-SM Fairview route since the company acquired one of former Renan Transit's Daewoo ordinary bus and used it for the latter route before it has been replaced by new air-conditioned buses.
Recent Incidents[edit]
Like her sister companies under the Mahilac Group, CEM Trans Services, Inc. has involved in a road accident like the accident that happened in Amparo, Caloocan City, plying route to Tungko/Grotto (San Jose del Monte), when a bus flipped over the wall at Quirino Highway on February 2, 2008, resulting in an injury of 20 passengers aboard.
The same unit also has involved in a failed collision with the Philippine National Railways train near Nichols station where 15 passengers were injured while panicking to get out of the bus, and rushed to Taguig City Hospital. The driver, Elvin Araza, who was able to pass the bus at PNR Access Road going to north bound lane of South Luzon Expressway, was charged at Taguig City Police Station by the passengers who are aboard on the bus.[2]
CEM Trans has put up also a bad image of their employees, especially their bus conductors. In an article on People's Tonight last May 12, 2009, a bus conductor aboarding CEM Trans with bus no. 9114-47 (which means 47 animated roadrunners) plying Alabang-Malanday route had allegedly disrespected a disabled passenger. The conductor charged that passenger a PHP30.00 ticket, though the fare must be discounted because the passenger is actually disabled, resulting to a unanimous debate between the two. Glicerio Cabigayan, the conductor aboarding the said bus unit, was given expulsion by the operator Crisinciano E. Mahilac as a result of his grievance against the passenger.[3]
Recent Updates[edit]
CEM Trans. Services Inc. was created as an initiative on the regards of lack of many buses bound to SM City Fairview which was situated at Food Terminal Inc. (FTI) in Taguig City from the defunct HR Lines, where its latter's franchise was given to the Mahilac Group last 2006. Its sister company, Nicholas Albert Transport Inc., was the first to be created under the defunct bus company. She was followed by CEM Trans a year later.
As of today, CEM Trans is utilizing Nissan units. This also includes the acquired Daewoo non-aircon units from Renan Transit.
- It is said that CEM Trans. Services Inc., like the provincial bus company Partas, uses the Road Runner logo to mean the fastest city bus company among other bus companies in the Philippines, servicing along EDSA corridor. The bus speed limit for Metro Manila roads is 80kph.[4]
Bus Terminals[edit]
- FTI-Grotto via EDSA Fairview Lagro Tungko Commonwealth Avenue - uses ordinary buses
- Alabang-Navotas Terminal via EDSA (operated under BCB Transport Inc.)
- Alabang-Malanday via EDSA McArthur Highway
- NAIA-Malanday via EDSA McArthur Highway
- NAIA-Grotto via EDSA Fairview Commonwealth Avenue
- Alabang-Lagro-SM Fairview via EDSA Commonwealth Avenue

JACKI LYDEN, host:
A dozen ancient shipwrecks have been discovered in the Baltic Sea, just east of Sweden. The well-preserved ships are hundreds of years old. The oldest wreck may date back 800 years.
Andreas Olsson is the head of the archeological unit of the Swedish National Maritime Museum, and he joins us via Skype from Stockholm. Welcome.
Mr. ANDREAS OLSSON (Swedish National Maritime Museum): Thank you very much.
LYDEN: Would you give us a picture of what these ships look like?
Mr. OLSSON: Some of them are very well-preserved. They're standing intact on the bottom. The masts are still standing, and they're preserved as if they were sailing just yesterday, actually.
LYDEN: Wow. So I know that the ships are far too submerged for a diver to reach, but you mentioned how well-preserved they are, and you have had robotic submersibles taking pictures. What do they look like? Do they have the big wheels we associate with the old merchant ships or what?
Mr. OLSSON: Yes, the medieval one, for instance, is more deteriorated. You can see the cargo, made up of limestone, and you see wooden barrels with some kind of unidentified content. The young ones, the more well-preserved ones, you see the whole equipment on the ship. You see the wheels, You see rigging details, doors. Everything is still there.
LYDEN: And why aren't they more deteriorated?
Mr. OLSSON: The Baltic Sea has really good conditions for preservation of wood. That is due to the low salinity in the Baltic Sea. And the ship worm, which is quite common in other seas, can't survive here. But we also have a very intense seafaring in this area. You know, it's bordered by many countries. It's quite a small sea. And we also have the Swedish Archipelago, which is difficult navigating. And I think that's also a reason.
LYDEN: You mean a reason that they were wrecked along the...
Mr. OLSSON: Exactly.
LYDEN: ...30-mile corridor. The Baltic Triangle, you might say.
Mr. OLSSON: Yeah, yeah. We have so many shipwrecks there, it's quite amazing.
LYDEN: Remind me not to take a cruise. What's going to happen to these ships? Will they be raised or protected in some ways?
Mr. OLSSON: We don't have any plans to raise anything at this moment. The company, Nord Stream, they plan to lay a gas pipe on the seabed, and the gas pipe can be placed without damaging the ship.
LYDEN: So as an archaeologist, Mr. Olsson, how excited were you to come across these old vessels?
Mr. OLSSON: I'm very excited. You know, I'm still so fascinated. I've seen many shipwrecks and I've been diving on many, of really well preserved. But each time you see footage of a wreck with all these details from the past, you know, it's really a time capsule that's lying there underneath.
LYDEN: Andreas Olsson is the head of the archaeological unit of the Swedish National Maritime Museum, and he spoke to use from Stockholm via Skype. Thanks again.
Mr. OLSSON: Thank you very much.
LYDEN: And you can see pictures and a video of the ancient shipwrecks in the Baltic Sea on our Web site, NPR.org.

Very Large
Last quarter I introduced the concept of Virtual Meetings (http://reports.apcug.org/2008q3/7.htm), where a presenter could do a presentation, without needing to physically be at the meeting. At that time I was focused on one program (LogMeIn), but I subsequently discovered several other programs.
LogMeIn is primarilly a remote control program. Others are primarilly collaberation / workgroup programs. And others are designed for remote presentations, sometimes to just one audiece, and sometimes to a lot of people (like a UG meeting where everyone was at home rather than at the meeting). But they can all be used for Remote Programs.
This should be of particular interest to User Groups, who are finding it harder and harder to attract vendors to do presentations, because of the high cost of gasoline, and restricted budgets for travel expenses.
But while I certainly hope vendors will carefully consider using one of the programs I describe to offer to do presentations for User Groups, I would also like to suggest one other source for programs you may not have thought about. Do you have a member or sig leader that used to do a lot of programs for your user group, but who is no longer able to even attend meetings because he can no longer drive at night, or has become disabled, or is in the hospital, or has retired and moved out of town? Do you think your members would like to hear from him again, and see another of his good programs? And do you think he might enjoy putting on a program like he used to? With Virtual Meetings it is possible.
In this article I will be covering a number of different alternatives. All are available for FREE, although some can provide slightly more features for a small price. Many of these use Skype (http://www.skype.com/) for the audio portion of the program, and with a webcam you can allow your audience to see the presenter, and to allow your presenter to see the audience. If all the presenter needs to do is talk, then Skype alone might do the job, but in most cases the presenter will want to use a PowerPoint presentation or demonstrate some software.
There are two computers involved. The "Presenter" has his own computer where he is, and you will need an "Audience" computer, connected to a projector, at your meeting. In some cases you may need to have certain software installed on the Audience computer, but in other cases all you will need to do it login to the Presenter's computer, and the software is installed on it.
There are a number of programs that can be used for Virtual Meetings: LogMeIn Free, Adobe ConnectNow, Microsoft SharedView, and IBM Lotus Sametime Unyte. There are some (paid) other services that I will not cover here:
Each of these has its advantages and disadvantages. Some (like LogMeIn) are focused on remote access and control of another computer, some are focused on collaboration with a collegue (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collaborative_software), and some are focused on one person presenting a program that can be viewed at more than one computer, but if you have a projector connected to a laptop at your meeting, any of these solutions can work. I will describe each in the order that I learned how to use it.
I use LogMeIn all the time, both for personal use, and to help other members of the Tulsa Computer society with problems, rather than driving over to their house. I am physically disabled, so I spend most of the time in my living room, sitting in a lift chair, and I use LogMeIn on my laptop to connect to my desktop computer in the other room. I have also used it while in the hospital to connect to my desktop at home. With LogMeIn you need to have the package installed on the "Audience Computer", and I need to have an Active X plugin (for IE) or Add-on (for Firefox) installed on my "Presenter Computer". When you install the package on the "Audience Computer" you first need to create an account, and login with your email adress and password.
Do you see the large green box "Download LogMeIn Free". Don't Use It. It downloads a trial version of the LogMeIn Pro package, which means that Remote Sound is activated, and that will interfere with the Presenter speaking through Skype, and then hearing his own voice a fraction of second later. Create your account, login, and you will see
Click the Add computer link
and select the Free Version and install it on the "Audience Computer". While installing it, you will be asked for a second password. Make it different from the one you used to login. The presenter will need to know the email address you used and both passwords. When the presenter logs in with your email address and password he will see all computers you have associated with that login/password.
In this example HOMEPC is my desktop computer (the one I connect to the most often). Laptop is my Laptop computer. Notice that the icon is grayed out and shown as offline.
That could mean the computer is not turned on, or not connected to the internet. But my laptop is certainly turned on (I am typing this on it right now), and it is connected to the internet. The answer can be seen in my systray.
See the icon for LogMeIn (a grey rectangle with progressively larger dots curving up and to the right, with a red X in the lower right corner). That red x means I have LogMeIn installed on my laptop, but it is disabled. While disabled no one can log into my computer, even if he knows my email address and both passwords. But I can double click on the icon
and select Enable LogMeIn, and then Laptop will no longer be greyed out, and someone can connect to my laptop. This is useful to know, beause if your "Audience Computer" is a laptop you use for other purposes, you can have LogMeIn installed on it, but disabled. No one can access your laptop regardless of its location, until you enable it at the UG meeting.
Notice I have three other machines on my screen: Larsha-PC, MelissaLaptop, and Petty. These are three friends that occasionally call me and ask me to tell them why something isn't working right on their computers. With LogMeIn I can connect to their machines and answer their questions, without them having to lug their computers over to my house. At this particular time Larsha and Melissa's computers are either off or not connected to the net, and Petty's is on and connected.
If your group is anything like mine you will frequently get calls asking you to make a house cal (i.e. come to their house and show them how to do something on their computer). With the high price of gas, you may want to ask them to just install LogMeIn, and let you help them online.
With LogMeIn, you will need to have any application program the presenter wants to demonstrate installed on the "Audience Computer", and if the presenter wants to use a Power Point slide presentation, you will need a copy of it on both computers.
The "Audience Computer" needs to have the latest version of Adobe Flash Player, which is already on most browsers worldwide, and if you would like to share the "Audience Computer" screen with the Presenter, you will be prompted to install a small ConnectNow plug-in. You do not have to sign up for an account because you can appear as "guest" on the "Presenter Computer". However if you want to use Adobe ConnectNow for collaboration with a collegue, you will probably both want to register for an account and install the software in both computers. You will each get a permanent URL like https://connectnow.acrobat.com/donsingleton which you can bookmark.
To start a meeting, just open a browser window and enter your unique meeting room URL, which never changes.
Invite others to join you at the same URL by clicking Send Email Invitation Now.
When one responds you will get two requests to grant permission.
is in the upper right corner, and
is in the lower right corner. I don't know why it appears both places, but it appears you can authorize access either way.
This screen:
shows both of us are in the meeting room, and each sees
If Paula clicks to share her screen, I will see
and then shortly after that it is replaced by this screen:
which shows her screen with Photoshop opened, and she is working on a B&W image. She can also minimize everything, and I see her desktop.
The free Adobe ConnectNow service supports up to three meeting participants (yourself and two others). If you need to host larger meetings, all the way up to 1,500 people, you can purchase Adobe Acrobat® Connect™ Pro. But you can use the free Adobe ConnectNow service if your "Audience Computer" is connected to a projector, and there could be 1,500, or even more, people in the room.
Every account includes free audio conferencing. No reservations required — just click the phone icon and select Adobe Conference Number. You will see a text box with the call-in numbers as well as the meeting ID number. There is no charge for the service, however, long distance phone charges may apply.
With ConnectNow, a meeting participant can take control of other meeting participants' desktops with their permission. This is useful for collaborative work sessions, one-on-one instruction, and product support. You can access remote control in two ways: (1) while you are sharing, select someone else in the attendee list and select Give This User Control Of My Computer," or (2) if you'd like to request control of someone's screen, click his or her name while the participant is sharing and select Request Control Of This User's Computer.
To use SharedView you will need a Windows Live ID account (https://accountservices.passport.net/reg.srf?sl=1&lc=1033).
You can click to Start a new session, and you will see 2.jpg
You can either open a new email message or copy the instructions to the clipboard and open you own email message. Notice it has a cryptic code number "J3$4BZ3N". That number is only good until the presenter closes the SharedView program. If he closes it and reopens it, a different number will be generated, and he will have to resend the email invitation.
Here Paula has responded to my invitation. The top of Paula's screen shows
She sees there are two of us in the meeting, I have made one Handout available which she can download, she can offer to share her screen, or type a message that will be seen by everyone. On the next line she can request control, but right now she knows my screen is the one everyone sees, and I am in control of it.
Connect with up to 15 people in different locations and invite them to share with you. Anyone can share, and the person sharing can give control to anyone else.
The person wishing to do the presentation, i.e. allow others to see their screen sees:
The one wishing to view the presentation clicks on the invitation and then selects how to view it
and then they can view any program the presenter makes available to them.
These are certainly not the only programs you might use. See http://www.webconferencing-test.com/en/webconference_overview.html for other options.
Whatever you use, if you can persuade a vendor to use one of them, it may be possible to get a speaker to appear at your meeting via cyberspace, when it would not be economical to travel to your city, with the high cost of gasoline.
I am hoping you will also consider asking some formerly active members that used to do programs for your UG to do one from home, if they can no longer drive at night, or have some other disability that prevents them from attending meetings, or if they have retired and moved out of the area. I suspect they will appreciate being thought of, and your members will appreciate hearing from them again.
A third source of programs comes to mind. I suspect that many of your programs are put on by one of your members, and they probably spend a lot of work preparing for a presentation (I certainly did when I put on programs for TCS). Why should all of that effort be spent for just one program?
If you spent a lot of time preparing for a program for your UG, would you be willing to present it another time for another UG, using a Remote Presentation? If you would, prepare a short summary of the program, together with it's title, and email it to either the APCUG Advisor for your region, and ask him (or her) to forward it to me, or send it directly to firstname.lastname@example.com. Title the email "Program Available" and indicate what day(s) you would be available to present your program for another User Group, and which of the programs described in this article you would like to use. I will collect all of those offers to do programs and publish them in an article in Reports next time.
For now I have one program that I can offer to do. I presented a program on Remote Presetations at the Midwest Regional (which prompted this article), and if you would like to have me present it to your User Group I can.
You will need a high speed internet connection in your meeting room, a projector for your laptop, Skype installed on the laptop, and some way of amplyfing your laptop sound so everyone can hear it.
I would also like to urge vendors to consider using one of the programs described here to do a presentation at a User Group that might be so far from your offices that you cannot aford to travel to their city and do a presenttion in person.
If you would like to experiment with these programs, and try your presentation out with a remote audiece, just give me a call at 918-622-3417. I have all four programs installed on my laptop, and since I am homenound, I am available 24x7.

What is 'Gross Rate Of Return'
Gross rate of return is the total rate of return on an investment before the deduction of any fees or expenses. The gross rate of return is quoted over a specific period of time, such as a month, quarter or year. It is often quoted as the rate of return on an investment in advertising flyers and commercials.
Next Up
BREAKING DOWN 'Gross Rate Of Return'
The gross rate of return on an investment can be substantially different than the rate of return that is realized after expenses. For example, the gross return realized on a mutual fund that charges a 5.75% sales charge will be very different than the return realized after the charge has been deducted. Mutual fund companies are therefore required to publish or provide both returns to investors for this reason.

Period: Northern Wei dynasty (386–534)
Date: dated 524
Culture: China
Medium: Gilt bronze
Dimensions: H. 30 1/4 (76.8 cm); W. 16 in. (40.6 cm); D. 9 3/4 in. (24.8 cm)
Classification: Sculpture
Credit Line: Rogers Fund, 1938
Accession Number: 38.158.1a–n
This magnificent and uncommonly large altarpiece is one of the great artistic achievements of the Tuoba, a non-Chinese people who occupied most of the provinces north of the Yellow River by the middle of the fifth century. As founders of the Northern Wei dynasty, the Tuoba ruled northern China until 534. The cave temples of Yungang and Longmen sponsored by the Tuoba emperors are a tangible expression of their ardent faith in Buddhism. Further testimony to this strong devotion, the Maitreya altarpiece is a fine example of the creativity and skill of the late Northern Wei dynasty. Maitreya, the Buddha of the Future, stands against the glittering background of a mandorla. With hand gestures, he reassures the worshippers and promises to grant their wishes. Two bodhisattvas stand at the Buddha's side, and two sit at his feet. Four offerers, perhaps Tuoba in their nomadic dress, hold bowls. Two thunderbolt bearers guard the corners of the altarpiece; two lions sit on either side of the incense burner, below the Buddha. Nine music-making angels alight on the rim of the mandorla. The images are placed on superimposed tiers that become narrower toward the top. A fluttering angel rests at the apex. All these holy participants seem to be enclosed in an imaginary triangle that becomes the symbolic boundary of the heavenly realm. In its linearity and abstraction, the altarpiece represents the mature Northern Wei style. The images, particularly that of the Buddha, display elongated narrow bodies swathed in several layers of clothing. Only the face and hands emerge as focal devotional points. Tension, vigor, and dynamism are strongly expressed by the decorative patterns formed by the flickering flames and the angels' fluttering ribbons that taper off in space.

Part 3 - Get More Success: Selling From The Fulcrum; Your Own Sense of Balance
The reason why people put themselves into "the middle" is to make a difference in the lives of their coworkers and the company in general. But it's not an easy road. Ignited starts with a quick quiz that will give you a general idea as to how your attitude plays out in relation to your job. Then the three parts of the book help you find your path to a more effective role in the company. Part 1 talks about general principles of management that might sound like common sense, but that often get lost in the midst of the battles. I really was struck by the effectiveness of the "universe mapping" exercise. It shows you who you are linked to in terms of your success.Read more ›
The research for this book included an online survey of over 100 in-depth interviews with middle managers from a variety of organizations including Gateway, ABC, Rawlings, Intel, Bank of America and others. The surveys revealed an underlying disconnect between many middle managers and the corporate goals and vision of the organizations they work for.
Ignited is written to motivate and inspire middle managers to realize that they can make a significant contribution to their organizations, careers and personal lives. Ignited is intended to offer a better solution to managers who struggle to perform well in the complexity of our modern business world. Thompson defines Ignition as "the coming rebirth of purpose and power that managers in The Middle can experience if they choose to make it happen."
This inspirational book is divided into three parts. Within these divisions are 14 chapters. Part 1 is entitled "Get More Power" and it offers some sound pointers for improving the personal perspective and basic thinking of managers. This of course leads to an improvement in behavior and decision-making.Read more ›
Ignited is an eminently practical book that lends itself to immediate use from word one. I recommend when you sit down to read the book that you have a highlighter pen, a number of bookmarks and some note paper-- this may not be formatted as a workbook, but you'll end up treating it as one and applying its advice as you progress through it.
The author, Vince Thompson, has many years in management and so writes from personal experience as well as education and research. His analyses, explanations, and suggestions all give you a sense of his having "been there" and confidence in his advice.
Thompson gives you a solid grounding in all the essentials of managing both up and down the organization and then shows how to leverage those essentials into formidable skills that ignite your management style, your organization, and your career. The essentials include understanding and applying the principles of networks and networking, team-building, access-gaining, self empowerment and leadership-- all from an uncommon perspective. He helps you learn to become a key (and highly effective) manager by harnessing the power of knowledge of organizational processes (what is done, when, why, how, and by whom) and people in or related to the organization (who does what, knows what, has what connections, has what power, etc.). He tells you why. He tells you exactly how. And, he provides clear and interesting examples and anecdotes to illustrate his points.
His own enthusiasm and excitement, paired with his knowledge-packed narrative, will ignite you.

Movie Icons Greta Garbo, Ingmar Bergman to Adorn Sweden's Money
Greta Garbo, the reclusive Swedish Hollywood screen legend who died in 1990, will soon adorn the Nordic nation's 100-krona notes.
Garbo, a Stockholm native who died in New York, is one of six prominent 20th century Swedes to feature on the new bills, the central bank said today. Director Ingmar Bergman, Astrid Lindgren, the author of Pippi Longstocking, opera diva Birgit Nilsson, troubadour Evert Taube and former United Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarskjoeld were also selected.
"The new motifs reflect Sweden's cultural heritage and different parts of our country in a positive and representative way," Johan Gernandt and Leif Pagrotsky, chairman and vice chairman, respectively, of the bank's General Council, said in a statement. "Of course, achieving an equal balance between women and men has also been important."
The bank will announce a design competition for the notes and expects to reach a decision on the final design by the start of 2012, "if no intellectual property law problems arise." The new notes will be issued in 2014 or 2015.
Sweden's current notes feature author Selma Lagerloef, singer Jenny Lind, botanist Carl Linnaeus, and Kings Karl XI and Gustav Vasa.

Forbes recently said:Nuckols also unloaded American Home Mortgage Investment (nyse: AHM - news - people ), which is not subprime, but he fears that it could get painted with the same brush. Lehman follows AHM. Watch, Lehman will wait until they feel it has hit the low, then they will update their recommendation of 1-overweight. Lehman says there is skepticism regarding AHMs performance, but expects the stock to rise when the skepticism is gone. The question is - when will the skepticism go away. The 13% yield on the dividend will help over time.AHM is not subprime but they need to do a better job of talking to the media and analysts.I plan to hang in there and benefit from the good yield.Take a look at the history of ABR.
Check the yield again, it's higher than 13 percent. Also, lehman Brothers said recently "AHM should significantly outperform the market as soon as market skepticism subsides and until that happens investors should be rewarded for their patience with a 14%+ cash return" They left their target at $45. In other words they think this is oversold. Most of the stocks they cover trade much closer to their target prices.I see there's over 12 million shares held short as of 2/15. That's bullish as well. What if they beat estimates yet again when they next report ? The company's guidance already anticipates a highly stressed credit environment.
Hi..Just saw a notice from the AP newswire which basically apologizes for its Thurs. wire which lumped AHM in with all the other sub-prime lenders... Seems to me that we, therefore should be seeing some recovery come Monday...Eegle
you just don't get it!

Skip to comments.Snyderman: People 'B*tched' But Bloomberg Showed Leadership By Banning Big Sodas
Posted on 09/24/2012 9:11:36 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest
If only the little people would stop clinging to their freedom, the elites could improve their lives so much . . .
During the push for ObamaCare, MSNBC gave Dr. Nancy Snyderman her own show to promote the cause. The show ended shortly after the passage of the law, but Dr. Nancy's still around, supporting other politicians in their quest for more control over people's lives.
On Morning Joe today, Snyderman celebrated New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, claiming he showed real leadership by imposing a ban on big sodas. Snyderman sniffed off opponents of the law as simply having "bitched about the nanny state."
View the video here.
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
Defending your freedom against the nanny state = 'bitching' in eyes of MSM/political elites like Dr. Nancy Snyderman. Ping to Today show list.
Many people throughout history have "shown leadership".
Today soda's, tomorrow the bill of rights.
Watching Morning Joe can cause fat to accumulate in liberal brains and butts.
This is leadership? In which direction are we supposed to be going?
Or are we doomed to wander about some vast wasteland for years before somebody finally says, "Enough!"
Time to consult the moral compass and focus on the goal we really want to head for.
The temporary kind of leadership.
Yesterday the War On Drugs.
Wow. These libs are amazing. Truly.
Ban of "big" sodas reduces economies of scale in purchasing power. Buyers need to buy more quantities of less soda for the same fix.
Political kickback to Coke/Pepsi suppliers and dispensing companies — think McDonalds for doing all that hiring for Hussein?
... Unless of course, one trusts Big Media to report the truth, and then it's to reduce obesity.
Kind of like how the Great Clinton's Telecommunications Act of 1996 was to "protect the children", while it allowed Big Media to coalesce and become the anti-American propaganda machine it is today.
Does this smug looking "w"itch realize that Bloomberg did not outlaw or pass a law preventing people from ordering a "refill" of my (whatever)
If I cannot buy a 16oz drink, I see NO law preventing me from buying 2 8oz drinks. If my school days math is correct 2 drinks at 8oz. is the equivalent of a single 160z. er.
If ordered in an eating place, the server who does NOT bring the second drink has just blown his/her tip.
People patronize the place that fulfills their desires. Else why bother going???
Hitler and Stalin showed extraordinary "leadership".
Hitler showed leadership, too. We all know where THAT went!
*No, I do not equate nannyism with mass murder.
When you buy in the larger don't you get more for less money? If so, aren't they hurting the poor?
And what about the tax? Here in Ohio you pay a tax on take out. Does New York have a tax on take out. If so, is it more for two smaller drinks then it would be for one big one?
I'd love to know what movie theaters plan to do.
That is most certainly NOT leadership.
Leading a free people involves presentation of better ideas, arranging an array of disparate data and presenting them as a single cogent argument.
Leading a free people involves "...hey, I haven't had a jumbo soda in weeks and I feel great. Give it a try and see how it works for you..."
Leading a free people has been confused with having authority over a free people (oxymoron apology)....at least by the author of this article.
The purpose of the exercise, the "American Experiment," looks for all intents and purposes to be the protection of individual volition, and the free exercise thereof. Anything else comes under the heading of societal authority and must be agreed to by all parties involved, or it is a no-go.
Bloomie acts like a powermad little dweeb (.02, your mileage may vary), who has succeeded in his not so little frog-pond (why is it so much of this drek comes from the cities?).
Leadership of a free people is not about coercion...
More generally, if having the government 'ban' things is the best way to deal with societal problems, why not just go the whole way?
We could have government"
1. Issue mandatory chastity belts for teenagers to prevent teenage pregnancy.
2. Send troops into gang-invested inner city areas to rid them of this problem.
3. Ban all movies, literature, and music (yes, including hip-hop) that feature violent themes.
4. Make the driving age universally 18 years to avoid car accidents involving young drivers.
5.Make it mandatory that all <18 years old have to wear government defined uniforms, to cut down on crime associated with the theft of fashionable clothing items, such as high-end footwear (e.g. Nike's).
6. Ban any high school or state college sports in which participants 'could get hurt'.
etc. etc.
No, I'm not advocating any of this...
Hitler and Stalin had strong leadership skills too.
I'm not sure 'leadership' is the sole criteria we should use to evaluate elected officials.
Hitler and Stalin had strong leadership skills too.
I'm not sure 'leadership' is the sole criteria we should use to evaluate elected officials.
He showed tyranny, that all, tyranny. How much people want to consume is none of the government's business.
Liberalism: Ideas so good they have to be compulsory.
Why did they think they needed to invent a whole new word "sugery drink" for something that's been around for 100 years and already has a perfectly good name - pop, soda, soda pop.
They aren't fooling anywone with this NewSpeak Bull Carp.
Check again. You pay tax on soft drinks anywhere in Ohio. You pay tax on food eaten in a restaurant. But you don't pay tax on the food you carry out. If the restaurant is charging you, then they are ripping you off.
Even the soft drink tax is odd. You pay tax on sweetened iced tea, but not on unsweetened. Stores and restaurants often get that wrong and just charge tax on all of it.
Leadership is not necessarily a positive. In this case, it's a sign of evil (not that junk soda is a fundamental right, but control over your own life is a fundamental right). Bloomberg is a rather pathetic petty tyrant - that's enough power over the little people to make him feel 'special'?
So this proves that Bloomberg is a petty tyrant.

Anthem Inc., the No. 2 U.S. health insurer by membership, reported second-quarter earnings that beat analysts' estimates as enrollment climbed.
Earnings, excluding some items, were $3.33 a share, Anthem said Wednesday in a statement, compared with the $3.23 average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
The good news comes as Anthem tries to complete its $48 billion acquisition of rival Cigna Corp. The U.S. challenged the takeover last week, saying the combination would limit competition and raise prices for consumers.
Anthem executives are scheduled to talk with analysts on a conference call at 8:30 a.m. New York time. Chief Executive Officer Joe Swedish told CNBC...

The B&B is strategically located in the old town. The owner was friendly and helpful, when we arrived he gave us lot of advises for sightseeing and eating. You should also try his breakfast with local products! The apartment is very nice, with a comfortable bed and a fully-equipped and clean bathroom. Only one minor thing: the noise from the street on Saturday night. Despite the double-window we could still hear some teens from downstairs. But this is Naples: beautiful and loud!! Enjoy! :)

Viewer Comments: Bronchitis - Length Symptoms Lasted
Patient Comments & Reviews
The eMedicineHealth doctors ask about Bronchitis (Chronic):
Bronchitis - Length Symptoms Lasted
How long did the symptoms of your bronchitis last? Was there anything in particular that helped with pain/symptom relief?
Comment from: Saralola', 65-74 Female (Patient) Published: March 08
I have asthma and am on Symbicort and ProAir inhalers plus Singulair on a regular basis. I got a virus 14 days ago that set off asthma and then bronchitis. I started myself on prednisone and an expectorant on the fourth day when it got worse. Three days later my chest was 'bubbling' with wheezing and I saw my primary physician. He added an antibiotic to be safe and told me to call back the next morning. The next day I could only blow 150 on my peak flow meter and called him. He put me in the hospital and I was there for five days under the care of a pulmonary specialist. I'm home but struggling to breathe and with extreme tiredness. I saw my regular pulmonary specialist yesterday as part of the follow-up. She noted I'm still very congested and that it's going to take a long recovery period. One doctor told me it takes three months to get over a lung problem like this, whether you're 25 or 75. This is disheartening but at least I know why it's so hard and so slow to improve. But it will.
Comment from: Granny Go-Go !, 75 or over Female (Patient) Published: January 26
Relieved to read of patients' prolonged recovery time from bronchitis, as my general physician seems to think I should be better after a week on a strong antibiotic (500 mg amoxicillin, 3 times daily). Although the bronchial cough is less 'thick', it is still almost continuous and I feel totally exhausted. Normally, I am a quite active, 83 year old, don't smoke, am not overweight but bronchitis has knocked me for six! I have not dressed for a week but am walking around the apartment and taking vitamin supplement etc. I am having to force myself to eat but trying to drink (lemon and honey mostly) often. Nights are the worst, when coughing fits leave me sleepless and worn out! Doctors keep saying cough medicine is worse than useless but I find Benylin with the diphenhydramine content is very effective. Beginning to feel I'll never get well again!
Comment from: Leigh, 55-64 Female (Patient) Published: September 15
I made a short visit with a friend (who told me she had bronchitis and had just seen the doctor), and sure enough after 3 days it started. I had a burning sensation in my chest, a dry cough for 2 or 3 days, then started coughing more and more. I have no fever, been to the doctor, and chest sounds clear as a bell. Now, on my 11th day I am tired, still coughing, taking OTC medicine to control the cough (Mucinex night time) and everyone tells me to take massive doses of vitamin C. I am pleased to hear that the length of this is not unusual. I suspect I'll feel better in a week but this is rough! Thankfully, no fever, body aches or headache. But my chest feels like it's going to explode someday! Stay well, folks.
Comment from: whitemtnhiker, 45-54 Female (Patient) Published: October 30
I am now dealing with bronchitis combined with an acute asthma episode. It is hard to sort out what symptoms are causing what, and I am grateful that my doctor erred on the side of caution and prescribed Zithromax and Advair. Advair provided relief instantly. The combination of Zithromax, Advair and albuterol as needed has been essential to my recovery. I also drink lots of water, as many hot drinks as I can stand and find that rest is absolutely essential. It has only been 24 hours since I started this course of treatment and I am now seeing a positive trend for the better. I concur with all those who say "don't wait" for treatment. I also disagree with the doctors who withhold antibiotic treatment since I think bronchitis, particularly for those with asthma or other respiratory ailment, requires aggressive treatment as fast as possible.
Comment from: 45-54 Female Published: September 11
When I had bronchitis, I couldn't stop coughing and was unable to sleep more than two hours at a time, even with sleeping aids. I put hand towels in my dryer at moderately high heat and then wrapped a towel against my chest (over my top) and zipped up in my down vest. I wrapped another dryer-warm towel loosely around my neck and covered my ears with the warm cloth. The warmth felt wonderful but what was more important was that the coughing stopped almost immediately. I think the warmth helped my lungs to expand. The towel in the vest will stay warm for a long time; repeat as desired.
Comment from: 25-34 Female (Patient) Published: September 11
I have had bronchitis three times in my life, twice in the last two years. The last two bouts began right before Thanksgiving and lasted until New Year's (about six weeks). This seems consistent with what I have read. ("Acute" bronchitis can last up to six weeks ...) I got better as the weeks progressed, but it took me about six weeks to get fully "well." Things that I found helpful were: Mucinex, drinking a "healthy" amount (about two liters for me) of water, and an albuterol inhaler. I have been prescribed codeine and Tessalon Perles, but these have not worked for me. The Mucinex (which is OTC) seemed to thin the mucus and decrease the coughing. Drinking water also helped. It seemed to make my cough more wet/productive (which may not seem desirable), but it also seemed to decrease the frequency and extent of my coughing fits, especially those dry ones that just won't end! My doctor prescribed the albuterol inhaler (often used for asthma) when I went to see him about the bronchitis. It seemed to help me breathe and decrease my coughing somewhat. One final note: My brother swears by Celestial Seasonings Echinacea wellness tea with a spoonful of honey. I didn't find out about this until my last bout was almost over, so I can't really comment. But he says this helps him when he has respiratory infections.

The director will let eat scraps after she feeds vistors...she trys to buy business so you can be an idiot if you willing to kiss her fat rear
Can lead to depression in memphis only....The Memphis AMS site is a complete joke...an uncle-tom for a HR manager....and he's new...
The director spends money like crazy, but seems to be taking money undr the table...she gave 0.5% gainshare stating the Memphis site made no money all year...but has spent 10's of thousands of dollars on building cosmetics, and lunches, and outtings for vistors and managers. Managers have fired from other places for taking money and the director trust those people to handle business. The director is like Paula Dean in every way bad...the Memphis site has become a joke of place...Hartman or whatever his name is needs to fire this idiot and get someone who can get the business back on track

Executive MBA: An Insider's Guide for Working Professionals in Pursuit of Graduate Business Education based on 0 ratings. 1 reviews.
By: Gary G.Wallrapp, MBA & Former Employment Manager with Reebok International, Ltd. Having managed the MBA recruiting and development programs in dynamic, global business environments, I could have benefited greatly from the practical advice and guidelines offered in The Executive MBA- An Insiders Guide. This book provides a great overview of both the employee and employer perspectives and offers valuable guidelines for organizations¿ to address a myriad of important issues: From linking the graduate business education initiatives to the organizations mission, to selecting program participants, formulating appraisal and financial sponsorship arrangements, to addressing post program issues- the author addresses it all. This book is a great resource for any organization seeking to develop and retain outstanding managers. Senior leadership can gain insight into setting up and managing EMBA programs and the talented professionals who are attracted to these programs. The author¿s logical, focused, and strategic approach to create a managed program that can maximize results by synergizing graduate education and organizational mission is clearly outlined. Managing and retaining the most talented managers in a dynamic, global business environment is quite a challenge. Out of necessity, my approach was to recruit and develop smart, assertive and adaptable self starting MBA¿s who had a bias for action and could blend into diverse global business environments. In this mode, with senior leadership geographically spread throughout the world, I encouraged local management to autonomously direct talented MBA professionals as they moved through various divisions or companies: this approach can be effective if an upwardly mobile professional can self-navigate. While this approach can generate a natural setting for talent to flourish, it can also generate a chaotic state where talent can be underutilized or even suppressed. The perspectives and guidelines offered in this book can help an organization alleviate or avoid the downside risks and related failures in human resources development that can occur in dynamic, global organizations. Small, emerging firms that are nimble should also consider adopting the sponsorship ideas offered by this book... My experience in managing and observing numerous approaches to managing graduate education programs has convinced me that most programs are ¿ home grown¿ and could improve their effectiveness as measured by employee satisfaction and organizational achievement. Senior executive and human resources leadership could benefit greatly from the perspectives offered by this book. As the US economy continues to compete on a global basis for management talent, I believe the competition will stiffen and the bar will be raised thus requiring winning organizations to create thoughtful and globally integrated approaches to developing and retaining their future leadership; and this future leadership can effectively be developed from within the ranks of the talented and aspiring cadre of MBA credentialed professionals.
